Yes its true Instagram for Android has launched.
Instagram for Android is now available for practically every Android smartphone n the Google Play Store as a free download.

Instagram for Android is more than just a photography app with artistic filters, it’s also a huge social network with over 27 million users. The Instagram community will grow today as the millions of Android users can now download the popular app.

Instagram for Android doesn’t have the same issues Temple Run did at launch, with support for any Android phone running Android 2.2 or higher.

One of the most popular photography applications for the iPhone has quickly become one of the most popular Android apps. Instagram for Android surpassed 1 million downloads less than 24 hours after its release on the Google Play marketplace on Tuesday.

The Android application opened its pre-registration last week, attracting more than 430,000 users. When the service launched it reportedly saw 2,000 sign-ups per minute, nearly crashing the company’s servers. The popular app allows users to capture photos and edit them using a number of filters that give images a unique retro look.

Abbreviated as AR, Augmented Reality is a type of virtual reality that aims to duplicate the world's environment in a computer. An augmented reality system generates a composite view for the user that is the combination of the real scene viewed by the user and a virtual scene generated by the computer that augments the scene with additional information.

A new wave of mobile phones is about to launch and first out of the starting gate for Google is not Samsung or Motorola or Sony – it’s comparative minnow HTC.

The Taiwan-based company’s new ‘One’ series of phones, headed by the flagship ‘One X’, has generated more excitement among British networks than any device perhaps since Apple’s latest iPhone. That’s in part due to a huge marketing push led by the firm’s TV commercial featuring a photography student using the phone to take a picture while skydiving, but few mobile phone company’s fans have the ardour of HTC’s.
